Why don't people just start afresh. Base for Warband and then rebase for Warmaster at a later date?

I'm alright. I'm not effected by all this WM malarkey  :d

Because I have thousands of minis based for it!

Do I really want another goblin army?  I mean we all know the answer's yes but still :D

Because the Warmaster stands are two strips of maybe half-a-dozen figures, designed by and large to be units of 6 strips mounted two deep. I have somewhere between fifteen and twenty thousand points of figures in Warmaster terms. Warband will have to turn out to be something amazing to get me to use them and so far I'm seeing nothing that suggests they are that much better and I don't intend to have two sets of 10mm fantasy figures to play the two sets.

There again I suspect I am not the target audience for the rules and figures :-)

Handful of survivors, 100 or so zekes; now you're talking!

I'll paste in the below, from off my 10mm blog

"I had this wacky idea of making some movement trays with 20 or so bases on them, five of these trays say, mix up a whole bunch of different zombies and then also have a few loner bases of zombies in ones or twos. Now that would be a horde!

Scatter these trays across a landscape board and have them drifting in migrating packs, with the loners wandering aimlessly in between.

Now that would be something worthy of my survivors to crap themselves over!

But I think I'm letting my imagination run away with my bank balance :)"

Like it ;)

I currently have 32 units of Warmaster Zombies; 6 to a base, 3 bases to a unit: 600ish zombies.

Now that's a horde :D

But then I also had the idea of putting up a modern nato force (with tanks) against said horde and seeing which side still stood at the end of the night.

A modern Rorke's Drift, sort of

Ooh.

Just started getting into BKC; that would be really cool.

WW2 Nazi super weapon: Operation "Hirnlosen Toten".  D-day, Super bug release on allied frontlines, battle to survive, German panzer divisions (immune) launch counter attack...
